For specific information about how to configure policy conditions and actions to create a policy rule, see
“Creating Policies” on page 25-43
.
Policy Actions
The following actions are supported and can be combined with other actions.
The CLI prevents you from configuring invalid action combinations that are never allowed; however, it
does allow you to create combinations that are supported in some scenarios. For example, an action
specifying maximum bandwidth can be combined with an action specifying priority.
Use the following “Policy Action Combinations Table” together with the
as a guide when creating policy actions.
